License Verification

By Telephone

  • To verify temporary or graduate permits, call (303) 894-2430 and press 0 to speak with a customer support representative.

By Internet

  • The Automated Licensure Information System Online (ALISON) offers data available to the public via the Internet for all professions and occupations licensed by the Division. This online search allows you to obtain basic licensure and disciplinary information about individuals and companies licensed by the Board and programs within the Division.

  • Registrations Online Documents is a system that makes certain scanned documents related to disciplinary actions taken on all Colorado licensees available to the public via the Internet. Stipulations, Final Agency Orders, and Suspensions that were in effect in February 2000, plus any that became effective since that date, are among the documents that are now available.

For RN and LPN Nursing licenses only:
All verifications are processed via Nursys™, the online database of nursing license information. If you are a Colorado nurse seeking license verification, you will no longer submit verification request forms directly to the Board. Instead, you will complete the entire verification process online by visiting the Nursys™ website.

For CNA Nursing licenses only:
Effective October 1, 2003, the Colorado Board of Nursing will no longer honor written or telephone requests to verify routine licensure status of RNs, LPNs, or CNAs.  All of the necessary information may be obtained via the Internet using ALISON (Automated Licensure Information System Online).  This system offers data available to the public for all professions and occupations licensed by the Division.
